About Department (60 Seats)

Civil engineering is the discipline of global creator to meet the fundamental needs of human beings. Civil engineering provides comfort to public life. It traditionally covers streams such as geotechnical engineering, surveying, construction technology, structural engineering, environmental engineering, transportation engineering, material engineering, urban planning, water resources engineering, architectural drawing, quantity analysis, earthquake engineering etc.

The Department of Civil Engineering was established in 2017 in full-fledged with an intake capacity of 60 students per annum. The course study involves the expansion of latest technology such as Computer Aided Drawing (AutoCAD), structure detailing, Surveying by Auto Level and Total Station etc., along with a rich Civil Engineering Lab facilities, which impart high quality education and training to the students. The Civil engineering department has young, energetic and industrial experienced faculty members to bridge the gap between the academics and latest technology.

Civil Department

Aims & Objectives

Vision
  1. To become a centre of excellence in infrastructure development and skill development.
  2. To occupy a place in eminent institutes of the country and guide the student to become a responsible citizen and a competent professional.
Mission
  1. To impart high quality technical education and skill for the upliftment of present era job demand.
  2. To provide basic knowledge and strong foundation of civil engineering.
  3. To aim for higher education setup with continuous improvement.
  4. To become regional focal point in human development in civil engineering.
Objectives

The main objective of civil engineering department is to disseminate the knowledge to students to cater the demand of builders/contractors and construction industry people. This field of engineering enables the students to learn planning, analysis, design, construction method and maintenance of buildings, roads, dams, bridges, etc. They are also taught on utilization of natural resources such as water, minerals along with environmental education, transportation and urban engineering.

HOD Message

Akshay Kumar
M. Tech.
HOD, Civil Department

An affectionate welcome to the Civil Engineering discipline. Civil Engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction and maintenance of physically built works like roads, bridges, canals, dams and buildings. Earliest civil engineering works include pyramids in Egypt, highways by Roman engineers, the Great Wall of China, and Stupas in Sri Lanka. To raise the life standard of people, a country has to provide good infrastructure, and civil engineers play a vital role in this.

In our Civil Engineering Department we are imparting the knowledge of Theory & Practical on Building construction, Soil Mechanics, Structural Design, Surveying and Building Drawing and many more subjects. Apart from this, the department is committed to the all-round development of our students.

Infrastructure in India is going to be developed at large scale and high pace in the next coming years. So, we are contributing to meet these requirements by giving quality Civil Engineers to the society. Civil engineers are important to the society as they are often referred to as 'Builders of the Nation'.
